Cory Playing Atari Music Making Device
My friend Cory brought this neat little Atari music making device over and played it a few weeks ago. Cory has it running though an effects petal, using a lot of delay . By itself it sounds like sounds you hear in Atari games. I sort of got a head trip just sitting there listening to it.

Dusty Dirt "Off The Grid"
The lights are out but everyone's home
It kinda sucks but it beats being alone
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark.
Some one forgot to pay the bill but
That's okay we can still sing and play
Our guitars, our guitars, sing and play
Our guitars, our guitars.
The power's out we're living Off The Grid
Southern California Edison doesn't care if you have kids
Go get the batteries and candles we're Off The Grid
Let's steal some turbines and solar panels
Harvest the sun and wind
We aint got no electricity but that's okay cuz you me
got everything we need in our hearts, in our hearts
Life without modern technology
The only light that that we can see is the moon and the stars,
The moon and the stars, the moon and the stars
The power's out we're living Off The Grid
Southern California Edison doesn't care if you have kids
Go get the batteries and candles we're Off The Grid
Let's steal some turbines and solar panels

Dirt! The Movie Trailer
This is a documentary film coming out soon called "Dirt!The Movie". It is based on a book by William Bryant Logan called "Dirt: The Ecstatic Skin of the Earth". I haven't read it and probably won't because I don't have that kind of attention span but this movie looks pretty cool so I'll probably watch it a few times.

First Pick: Radishes, Atmospheric Nitrogen Chart, Sharedearth.com
We just picked these Radishes yesterday. It's the first to finish growing in the garden.
That shit grew fast only took about a month. I hadn't made anything with radishes,
ever so we found a simple recipe where you just fry them for a minute in butter and
put it on bread, I didn't know radishes could taste so good.
A lot more stuff is growing and almost ready to pick. Today and this weekend
we'll be working on our mulch pit system and planting mostly Legumes so we
can get some nitrogen flowing through the soil.
I found this cool little thing about Nitrogen...

This is a new social networking site for gardeners offering to share land for people
to grow food or people looking for a place to grow. I haven't signed up yet
but probably will.

It's actually kind of sad. there is a lot of people on this site but when you look
at Socal there's only a few spots in LA. Kinda shows how many people don't
give a fuck about growing food.

“Establishing a Food Forest (the Permaculture Way series)"
A few months back I was researching about gardening and I stumbled on a blog somewhere that had a link to this documentary film by Permaculturist Geoff Lawton. I had never heard of Permaculture before but the other part of the title was "Establishing a Food Forrest" and that sounded interesting. So I watched it and at first it was a little boring because it was about 20 minutes of lecturing. In the last 10 minutes or so of the lecture it starts to pick up when he talks about layering systems in a food forest.
Then it get's really cool when he takes you out into his food forest and explains what it's really all about. I was glued to the screen the whole time. It actually made the idea of having a garden way more exciting to me. So I give this film a 10 out of 10. It is very informative and I think anyone who likes gardening should see it.

Punk Not Profit! DIY Permaculture Gardening Jornal Part 1
Welcome to part 1 of the Punk Not Profit! Permaculture Gardening Journal
We tilled and started planting about 3 weeks ago. Since then a few sprouts have come up, mostly beets and lettuce. Here's a list of what's been planted so Far:
Carrots
Romaine Lettuce
Broccoli
Turnips
Radish
Kale
Flowering Kale
Cauliflower
Parsley
Cucumber
Pickle Cucumber
Beets
Kohlrabi
Rainbow Bell Pepper
Arugula
Zucchini
Summer Squash
Cantaloupe
Water Melon
Eggplant (Black Beauty)
Large Cherry Tomatoes
Tomatoes
Basil
Rosemary
Thyme
Chives
Dill
Green Onion
When you sow your seed you have to have the soil at least tilled a few inches down and if possible get a few truck loads of mulch and spread it over the soil so when you till it mixes in.
This time around we weren't able to get a lot of mulch in before tilling but that's okay because the soil around the house is very nutrient rich already.
Once we had our first plot of land tilled up, we were ready to start sowing seed. This is a process that takes very little time and effort, and it's fun because there are many ways to lay out and design a Permaculture garden.
Here's an example of one way to plant tomatoes...
In a nutshell, the difference between plain old gardening and Permaculture is that with Permaculture you're creating a self-sustaining ecosystem by naturally manipulating grow cycles.
The trick is to have nitrogen rich soil and of course good irrigation. Using chickens and growing legumes are the two best ways to naturally enrich the earth with nitrogen. If you can't have any chickens, the legumes would be enough but using chickens is the fastest way to establish a Permaculture system.
I'm going to write more later about how awesome chickens are for growing food but I can't have chickens right now so I'm just using Legumes.
These are just a few different types of legumes you can use. I've heard that cow peas have a very high amount of nitrogen in them so they're one of the best to plant. The legumes live in die in different cycles, some plants die and reseed every year, others wont die for up to 15 years. The goal is to have legumes constantly growing inside and around your Permaculture garden. The way I'm doing this is by making large mounds about 3 feet wide and 10 or more feet long. These mounds will be inside and all around the garden as it expands.
After the first grow cycle you'll start seeing the benefits of Permaculture. The soil will be enriched with nitrogen and other essential naturally occurring nutrients. You'll start noticing a higher yield in less time with less effort.
"Chop and Drop"
First off one of the problems with gardening or farming the old fashioned way is the misconception that everything needs to be planted in rows by itself. Secondly, it's not true that weeds are always a bad thing as long as they're kept under control they too can benefit a Permaculture system as part of what's called "Chop and Drop"
When a PS is ready for harvest you do not have to remove dead or unused foliage, you simply chop out what you grew and drop the remains on the ground. This not only refertilizes the soil but also takes a lot of time and labor out of Harvesting.
After about ten years an established PS will be completely sustainable and regrow by itself with very little effort on the grower's part after harvest.
SEEDS
I get most of my seeds from the .99 cents store up the street. They sell for .11 cents a pack, they usually have about 50 or so varieties. Seeds can go for up to 3.00 a pack other places so this is a really good deal, a cheap way to get a ton of seeds.
There are organisations online that will send you free packs of seeds if you pay for the shipping, I have yet to take advantage of that.
If you get food stamps (like me sometimes), you can use them to buy seeds or even sometimes potted plants, maybe that way you can grow your own food and get off the stamps.

Defective Children- "Acid Rain" CD
This is a collection of songs I recorded between 2005 and 2007.
They're not the best quality recordings cuz I was teaching myself
but I think it sounds okay for what it is.
A few songs I'm not very found of, the way they turned out. I kinda
over did it on them with back up vocals. Most of them turned out good.
